IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG), a global leader in hospitality, is launching its midscale long stay brand, Candlewood Suites, in Europe with its first hotel opening in Germany. The launch is in partnership with NOVUM Hospitality, one of Europe’s largest private hotel operators.
Part of IHG Hotels & Resort’ Suites portfolio, Candlewood Suites is an aparthotel brand offering guests casual, reliable and spacious studios and apartments equipped with kitchens. This provides guests the personal and physical space they need to not just stay comfortably but feel at home. Guests can enjoy the flexibility to cook their own meals, utilising the kitchens in each guestroom, complete with a microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher and coffee and tea-making facilities.
Candlewood Suites properties also offer self-service guest laundry, access to gym facilities and weekly housekeeping services. Guests can access the Candlewood Cupboard, a marketplace offering a variety of drinks, snacks and personal essentials for purchase or quality bean-to-cup coffee and tea available 24/7.
Mario Maxeiner, Managing Director Northern Europe, IHG Hotels & Resorts, commented: “We are looking forward to introducing the Candlewood Suites brand to Europe with the opening of Candlewood Suites Berlin Charlottenburg in Germany, one of our key European growth markets. We are especially proud of the swift collaboration between IHG and our partners at NOVUM Hospitality, who have successfully signed, converted and begun to open Candlewood Suites hotels across the country. With 13 additional Candlewood Suites set to open across Germany in the coming months, we are delighted to offer guests a new midscale aparthotel experience, underpinned by a reliable service and apartment-style amenities to maintain their independence and daily routines with confidence.”
